Halloween Food – Giant Marshmallow Pretzel Bone Dessert

The whole idea of this dessert came about from my need to find a dessert to fill my Terminus Walking Dead Party table. If you aren’t familiar with Terminus, it was basically a place where people turned into cannibals and ate fellow humans for food. And for some reason, my mind went to memories of my mom sucking on beef bone marrow (she loved this stuff) and the giant marshmallow & pretzel bone dessert was born.

Halloween Food – Giant Marshmallow & Pretzel Bone Dessert

Ingredients:

1 bag of large pretzel rods

1 bag of jumbo marshmallows

2 bags of white candy melts

red icing gel or red food color

vegetable or canola oil

Prep the jumbo marshmallows by using kitchen shears to cut a “v” onto one end of each marshmallow.

Use the tip of the shears to make a starter hole for the pretzels on the other end of the marshmallow.

Melt 1 1/2 bags of white candy melts in a glass bowl/ Use 20 second increments to melt the candy, while mixing between the times. Add 1 tsp. of canola oil to help keep the mix thin.

Dip each end of a pretzel into the candy melt and place a marshmallow on it.

Place the pretzels onto a sheet and cool in the refrigerator – 5 minutes.

Tip – Place the candy melt bowl into another bowl of hot water to help keep the melt thin and workable.

What a creative idea. The pretzels are a great way to hold the marshmallows together in the shape of human bones. I’m sure the kids will be surprised when they bite into to middle to discover that they’re pretzels.Marjo recently posted…Are Bananas Fattening?
